Nexus has no single permanent address and no clearnet site. It publishes several onion addresses, all resolving to the same market. Copy a current one from this page, open it in Tor Browser, and verify it against the login captcha.
The market rotates its onion addresses so a flood or takedown on one never puts it out of reach. Bookmark this page rather than a single raw address, and copy the current one when you need it.
Monero by default for privacy, Litecoin for small orders where Bitcoin fees are steep, and Bitcoin only when a vendor requires it. The deposit address is fresh per order.
Copy the address from this page, then hold it against the address the login captcha prints. Match means genuine, mismatch means close the tab. Never type a fifty-six character onion from memory.
No. A genuine login never asks for the recovery phrase. A page that does is a phishing clone. Close the tab and reach the market through a verified address.
Build a fresh Tor circuit and retry, or switch to another address here. All resolve to the same market. If every address stalls for several minutes, wait a short while, because floods pass.
A cold first page crosses about six relays with no caching, so eight to forty five seconds is normal and up to a minute is fine when the market is busy. Every page after the first reuses the connection and arrives in seconds.
Your circuit has acceptable latency and poor throughput, which are separate properties. Waiting fixes queues and does nothing about a bandwidth ceiling, so a new circuit for the site is the only real fix.
Almost always cookies blocked for that address, or two mirrors open at once. Each onion address is a separate origin to your browser, so a session on one does not carry to another and two tabs will fight.
Your wallet subtracted the network fee from the amount you typed instead of adding it on top. Do not send a second payment. Open a support message with the order reference and the exact amount sent.
No, as a standing policy rather than a judgement about the person. Confirming receipt before the package arrives releases the money and removes the dispute route in the same click, and honest sellers do sometimes ask.
Open a dispute rather than waiting politely, because a dispute pauses the automatic release timer and simply waiting does not. Late is never a reason to confirm receipt.
It changes who can see that you use Tor and does nothing about anything else, while adding a company that knows your name, your payment details and your connection times. It is not the improvement it sounds like.
Tor Browser for Android opens the same addresses. A phone is the weakest option because it carries a permanent identity, a location history and background services you cannot inspect, so use one deliberately rather than by default.
Hidden services are cheap to flood and there is no upstream provider to absorb it. A holding page that makes every arrival wait briefly is what keeps the market reachable under pressure.
Check whether any other onion service works for you. If they do, it is the market and it usually returns within hours. Wait rather than searching, because searching during an outage is how people land on copies.
